Except as otherwise required by law or this Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation), at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders the holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall have the right to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters property submitted to a vote of the stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing and Section 4.1 hereof, except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate (including any amendment to any Preferred Stock Designation) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding class or series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected class or series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such class or series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Certificate (including any Preferred Stock Designation).

(d) This Section 8.2 shall not limit the right of the Corporation, to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than Covered Persons, provided, however, that if the DGCL requires or permits the payment of such expenses incurred by a Covered Person as set forth herein in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, such payment shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director of officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section or otherwise.

 

(e) The Corporation may, by action of its Board, provide indemnification and the advancement of expenses to such of the officers, employees and agents of the Corporation and such other persons serving at the request of the Corporation as officers, employees and agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise to such extent as is permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware as the same exists or are hereafter amended and the Board shall determine to be appropriate.

RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS
OF
SERIES I CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

 

William J. Caragol and Allison F. Tomek, hereby certify that:

 

1. They are the Chief Executive Officer and Secretary, respectively, of PositiveID Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”).

 

2. The Corporation is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock.

 

3. The following resolutions were duly adopted by the Board of Directors:

 

WHEREAS, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation provides for a class of its authorized stock known as preferred stock, comprised of 5,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”), issuable from time to time in one or more series;

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Corporation is authorized to fix the dividend rights, dividend rate, voting rights, conversion rights, rights and terms of redemption and liquidation preferences of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock and the number of shares constituting any series and the designation thereof, of any of them;

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors does hereby provide for the issuance of a series of Preferred Stock for cash or exchange of other securities, rights or property and does hereby fix and determine the rights, preferences, restrictions and other matters relating to such series of Preferred Stock are as follows:

 

I. Terms of Preferred Stock.

 

A. Designation and Amount. The series of Preferred Stock will be designated as the Corporation’s Series I Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series I Preferred Stock”) and the number of shares so designated will be 2,500, which will not be subject to increase without the consent of the holders (each a “Holder” and collectively, the “Holders”) of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series I Preferred Stock.

 

B. Ranking and Voting.

 

1. Ranking. The Series I Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, rank: (a) senior with respect to dividends and right of liquidation with the Corporation’s Common Stock (“Common Stock”); and (b) junior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Corporation. Without the prior written consent of Holders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of Series I Preferred Stock, the Company may not issue any Preferred Stock that is not junior to the Series I Preferred Stock in right of dividends and liquidation.

 

2. Voting. Each share of Series I Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters requiring shareholder vote.

C. Dividends.

 

Commencing on the date of the issuance of such shares of Series I Preferred Stock (each respectively an “Issuance Date”), Holders of Series I Preferred Stock will be entitled to dividends on each outstanding share of Series I Preferred Stock (“Dividends”), at a rate equal to 6.0% per annum (“Dividend Rate”) of a stated value (“Stated Value”) of $1,000 per share of Series I Preferred Stock, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock splits, stock dividends, combinations of shares, recapitalizations or other such events relating to the outstanding Series I Preferred Stock at any time and from time to time. Dividends will accrue monthly and will be added to the Series I Liquidation Value, and upon redemption of the Series I Preferred Stock in accordance with Section I.F. Any calculation of the amount of such Dividends payable pursuant to the provisions of this Section I.C. will be made based on a 365-day year, compounded monthly.

 

So long as any shares of Series I Preferred Stock are outstanding, no dividends or other distributions will be paid, declared or set apart with respect to any Common Stock.

 

D. Protective Provision. So long as any shares of Series I Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Corporation will not, without the affirmative approval of the Holders of a majority of the shares of Series I Preferred Stock then outstanding (voting as a class), (i) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series I Preferred Stock or alter or amend this Certificate of Designations, (ii) authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to distribution of dividends senior to the Series I Preferred Stock, (iii) amend its articles of incorporation or other charter documents in breach of any of the provisions hereof, (iv) increase the authorized number of shares of Series I Preferred Stock, (v) liquidate, dissolve or wind-up the business and affairs of the Corporation, or effect any Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined below), or (vi) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

 

1. A “Deemed Liquidation Event” will mean: (a) a merger or consolidation in which the Corporation is a constituent party or a subsidiary of the Corporation is a constituent party and the Corporation issues shares of its capital stock pursuant to such merger or consolidation, except any such merger or consolidation involving the Corporation or a subsidiary in which the shares of capital stock of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continue to represent, or are converted into or exchanged for shares of capital stock that represent, immediately following such merger or consolidation, at least a majority, by voting power, of the capital stock of the surviving or resulting corporation or, if the surviving or resulting corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of another corporation immediately following such merger or consolidation, the parent corporation of such surviving or resulting corporation; or (b) the sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, by the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, or the sale or disposition (whether by merger or otherwise) of one or more subsidiaries of the Corporation if substantially all of the assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries taken as a whole are held by such subsidiary or subsidiaries, except where such sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition is to a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation.

 

2. The Corporation will not have the power to effect a Deemed Liquidation Event referred to in Section I.D.1 unless the agreement or plan of merger or consolidation for such transaction provides that the consideration payable to the stockholders of the Corporation will be allocated among the holders of capital stock of the Corporation in accordance with Section I.E.

 

E. Liquidation.

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment or provision for payment of debts and other liabilities of the Corporation, and after payment or provision for any liquidation preference payable to the holders of any Preferred Stock ranking senior upon liquidation to the Series I Preferred Stock, but prior to any distribution or payment made to the holders of Common Stock or the holders of any Preferred Stock ranking junior upon liquidation to the Series I Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, the Holders of Series I Preferred Stock will be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders an amount with respect to each share of Series I Preferred Stock equal to the Stated Value thereof plus any accrued but unpaid Dividends thereon (collectively, the “Series I Liquidation Value”).

 

 
   

 

If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation will be insufficient to make payment in full to all Holders, then such assets will be distributed among the Holders at the time outstanding, ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

E. Liquidation.

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment or provision for payment of debts and other liabilities of the Corporation, and after payment or provision for any liquidation preference payable to the holders of any Preferred Stock ranking senior upon liquidation to the Series II Preferred Stock, but prior to any distribution or payment made to the holders of Common Stock or the holders of any Preferred Stock ranking junior upon liquidation to the Series II Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, the Holders of Series II Preferred Stock will be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders an amount with respect to each share of Series II Preferred Stock equal to the Stated Value thereof plus any accrued but unpaid Dividends thereon (collectively, the “Series II Liquidation Value”).
